According to LA Car Accessories operator and owner Amrit Mirpuri, the shop's equipment upgrades are necessary considering the competition and today's more discerning car owners.

Says Mirpuri: "I believe only through modern facilities and experienced people can a shop provide consistent and high quality workmanship. Besides I always tell my clients, it would save them more money in long run since they won't have to come more often for repairs or replacements."

Recently, LA Car Accessories (+63 2 817-8617) introduced a whole new line of state-of-the-art facilities including a fully insulated sound room to safely test (and without disturbing the neighborhood) the sound quality of audio components, car horns, car alarms and sirens.

All-weather tint room

Also, the shop now has a fully air-conditioned and all-weather tint room to ensure a dust-free environment and high-quality finish of the tint installed.

According to him, the shop also offers a laser light alignment service -- the first here in the country -- that ensures headlights, high-intensity discharge (HID) lamps and fog lights are safely and properly aligned.

To complete the feel inside the shop, Mirpuri even hooked with up a popular FM radio station in Los Angeles, California, that plays nonstop rock and roll hits.

Mirpuri also hinted on expanding his shop's operation by opening 10 more branches in Metro Manila and other key cities in the provinces.
